Newton Abbot Badminton Club A friendly badminton club that plays to a good standard. Newton Abbot Badminton Club plays at Coombeshead Academy on Mondays and Fridays.

We play every Monday 7.45-9.45pm and Friday 7:00-9:00pm at Coombeshead Sports Hall apart from bank holidays. £5 per evening, membership by invitation subject to playing to an acceptable standard. Mondays – 2 courts 7.45 – 9.45pm

Fridays – 2 courts 7 – 9pm

We have Quarterly memberships available but the cost for Visitors and Non Members is £5 a night. I ask visitors to send a message before comin

g along as on occasion the sports hall is not available. Our fees contribute to our court hire costs, shuttles and public liability insurance. The club is happy to welcome new members as well as visitors who can play to a reasonable standard, as we are not able to offer formal coaching. However, If you are interested in coming along to a club night as a visitor, please contact us first by sending a message so that we can understand your expectations and also get an idea of your level of play. It is important that we try and maintain a reasonable level of ability and standard of play so that everyone gets to enjoy a good mixture of games. If you've never played before it would be beneficial to get some coaching beforehand. You will need to bring your own racket and indoor court shoes or sports shoes with a non-marking sole.

Please note : Due to high numbers of members and visitors on both Monday and Friday nights we are no longer able to accept any new players for the time being. There are also some issues with the overhead nets in the sports hall which is reducing the number of courts avaible to us. Please continue to check this page and it will be updated when the situtation changes. Thank you.

Hi, apologies for the lack of updates or responses on our page, it isn't monitored as often as we'd like due to the club being run by volunteers.

Yes the club is still running, unless you see any different on here, please just assume that it is.

We've had a recent high intake of new visitors and members and club nights are now reaching capacity, we simply don't have enough courts and if too many people arrive there is too much time with others sat out waiting to play which isn't fair on anyone.

It's a difficult situation if visitors come along that either haven't played before or don't play to a reasonable standard as no one wants to be told this, so please ensure you can play to a decent standard so that we can all enjoy a reasonable level of competive but fun games.

You will need to have previous experience of playing badminton. If you've never played before we have no coaching facilities and you'll need to get some practice or coaching before visiting us.

We play at Coombesheads sports hall In Newton Abbot on Mondays 19:45-21:45 and Fridays 19:00-21:00.

It's £5 a session but there are discount memberships available. If you play to an acceptable level you'll be invited to join as a member and you can choose to play on a Monday or Friday only or you can join for both nights.

Memberships can be paid by bank transfer, details on request.

Please note : You will need to bring your own racket. Indoor court shoes (non marking) are required and a drink would also be a good idea. We don't have any loan rackets or any other kit that we can lend out.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO BRING YOUR £5 WITH YOU ON THE NIGHT. IF YOU KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO PLAY, THERE'S NO EXCUSE NOT TO BRING YOUR CLUB FEE.

IF YOU HAVE JOINED YOU MAY BE ASKED TO SHOW PAYMENT CONFIRMATION OF YOUR MEMBERSHIP FEE. THANK YOU.
